I made a character with a high end on strength and Charisma, but when it comes to her personality and build, she is rather underweight (For now, at least), as well as being dull sounding and not showing a lot of emotion. I don't know how something like this could happen, but it sounded like an interesting character so far... yet the player at a group might say something.

How do you feel about this?

Strength can come in different forms. Thor to Green Arrow. Or just watch some of the women who do the American Ninja Warrior course. They usually aren't bulky, but they're definitely strong!

As for the Charisma, though, since it is pretty clearly meant to represent force of personality, being dull doesn't sound like it quite fits. Being quiet is fine, being dull is probably not. Think of the "quiet guy" trope in movies, where they say one line that takes everyone else by storm. They listen because they know that it's probably important.
